Make logging_collector=on work with non-windows EXEC_BACKEND again.

Commit b94ce6e80 reordered postmaster's startup sequence so that the
tempfile directory is only cleaned up after all the necessary state
for pg_ctl is collected.  Unfortunately the chosen location is after
the syslogger has been started; which normally is fine, except for
!WIN32 EXEC_BACKEND builds, which pass information to children via
files in the temp directory.

Move the call to RemovePgTempFiles() to just before the syslogger has
started. That's the first child we fork.

Luckily EXEC_BACKEND is pretty much only used by endusers on windows,
which has a separate method to pass information to children. That
means the real world impact of this bug is very small.
